Warning: Only use products manufactured explicitly for scale removal in espresso machine
boilers. Other products, such as those made for cleaning coffee pots or removing hard water
scale from bathrooms must never be used. Never use vinegar or any other chemicals for this
purpose. Never add any other cleaning agent to your water tank. Always follow the
manufacturer’s recommendation and instructions when descaling an espresso machine. Use of
improper cleaners or improperly using the correct cleaner can void the warranty, damage your
espresso machine, and be harmful to your health.
WARNING: Do not leave the machine unattended during this all process with an exception
of when the machine is unplugged.
THE DESCALING PROCESS
1. Turn the machine on and bring the boiler up to operating pressure. Once the machine is
up to pressure, turn the power switch to 0 (off) and UNPLUG the unit. Place a suitable
container under the hot water spout, open the valve and let the water flow until it stops.
Caution: water and spout will be boiling hot. Close the valve
2. If the machine is so equipped, remove the water softener device from the water tank and
install the screen that fits the end of the hose. The descaling agent will permanently
damage the water softener if it is left in place during this process, so do not reinstall it
until this entire procedure is completed. The original filter will stop any foreign matter
from entering the boiler or heat exchanger.
3. Confirm that the power switch is in position 0 and UNPLUG the machine
4. Pull the hoses out of the reservoir and remove the reservoir and its platform from the
machine.
5. Remove the drip tray and its cover
6. Tip the machine on its back and remove the two small Phillips head screws on the
bottom of the machine along the back edge. Stand the machine on its feet.
7. Remove the 6 screws on the outer case (three on each side). Slide the outer case off the
machine.
8. Replace the water reservoir’s platform and the reservoir and replace the hoses back into
the reservoir.
9. Following the descaling agent’s manufacturer’s instructions, make approximately 3
liters of solution. The powder will dissolve better in hot water, but the solution must
cool to room temperature when you add it to your reservoir. To expedite this process,
start by dissolving the powder in approximately one liter of hot water, and then add
